SUMMARY:

This work is a research on the possible impacts of climate change on wind energy, with the general objective of analyzing the potential impact of climate change on wind energy resources in South America, quantifying the density of wind energy (derived from data of wind speed near the surface) from the future projections of CMIP6, obtaining how different from the past-present are the future scenarios for the production of this type of energy. The research will be carried out using data from the Climate Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6) of daily and monthly surface wind, in which they will be used, and obtained from the website of the “Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF)” for 5 General Circulation Models Atmosphere (MCGA) with horizontal resolutions greater than 1.25° in latitude and longitude and with data for the future climate scenarios, SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5, all models wind data grids will be remapped to a common grid following an area-weighted bilinear interpolation. Data validation will be done using the ECMWF ERA5 reanalysis (C3S). The conditions of changes in wind and energy density will be evaluated by analyzing the differences between the baseline (1995–2014) and future periods (2046-2065 and 2081-2100), these analyzes will also be carried out seasonally. The results show that there is a high wind density for 3 of the 6 regions studied in South America, both in the optimistic and pessimistic scenarios.
